When Hou Ye said this, Qingyun happened to take the magpie into the house.

Through the rosewood screen of flowers and birds, I saw that the eldest lady was surrounded in the middle of the main hall, she stood on the bluestone floor, her footsteps moved slightly, and the hand covered under the cloud sleeves was shaking, which should be tearing the embroidered handkerchief, and the whole person looked cramped and uneasy.

Seeing her like this, the corners of Qingyun's mouth slowly rose, evoking a pear blossom smile.

Cocoon self-restraint, stealing chickens is not a loss of rice, and how to say that, you can always meet ghosts when you walk too much at night.

So many times before, the evidence was conclusive, and she could escape.

This time, she wanted to see which maid could help her take the blame.

You must know that Bingyan Pill is not an ordinary thing, it is a tribute, and there are few noble ladies in the entire Kyoto who have seen Bingyan Pill, let alone taking it?

It is precisely because the Bingyan Pill is precious, so it will be sent over in a short period of time, and after several turnovers, after all, the Bingyan Pill is only radiant for a period of time, except for taking it for a very long time, otherwise the effect is not so obvious.

Such a precious Bingyan Pill is not sold at all, it is said that it was given by someone, the Bingyan Pill is related to the life of Concubine Shen of Ning Wangfu, and the half life of Mrs. Youxiang, no one will help the eldest lady carry the black pot, even if the sun hits the west, there will be no one, but the eldest lady can't point out that the Bingyan Pill was given to her by the Queen Mother and Concubine Ning.

Her Bingyan Pill was ruined by her tea as early as the day after it was sent by the Lord of Ruoyao, and everyone in the Hou Mansion knew about it, and many people scolded her for being a loser in their hearts.

Not to mention that Concubine Shen was poisoned once, even a hundred times, and she couldn't blame her, because the real Bingyan Pill had never reached her hands at all, and she didn't have a chance to poison her even if she wanted to.

Could it be that the eldest lady wants to admit in front of the criminal department that she stole the beams and changed the pillars?

In that case, if the Hou Mansion wants to tolerate the eldest lady and is unwilling to divorce his wife, he will be laughed at.

Because of this difficult situation, Hou Ye and the old lady urged twice in a row. The eldest lady did not speak.

On one side is the murderer who poisoned Concubine Shen, and on the other hand, he divorced his wife.

She couldn't afford any of them.

Qingyun stood at the screen and watched, but did not step in, there were too many people in the room. It's crowded, so it's better to stand outside and watch the excitement.

The eldest lady didn't speak, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department looked at Hou Ye with a puzzled expression, "Mrs. Zun has never said where the Bingyan Pill came from. There is no way to continue to investigate this case, Bingyan Pill has been divided into two from the hands of the eldest lady of the Zhongyi Bo Mansion, and the Weiguo Mansion and the Chengguo Mansion have been cleared of suspicion, and I can only bring Mrs. Zun and the eldest lady of the Zhongyi Bofu back to the Criminal Department to question the case in accordance with the law of Dajin. ”

As soon as she heard that she was going to the Criminal Department, the eldest lady of Zhongyi Bofu jumped to her feet in a hurry, the Criminal Department was not easy to go, once she entered the Criminal Department, her reputation was almost ruined, she looked at the eldest lady, and she couldn't wait to open her mouth. "You mean, where did the Bingyan Pill come from, did you poison the Bingyan Pill to harm me?!"

The eldest lady of Zhongyi Bofu is too anxious, and the eldest lady is even more anxious, she can't wait to scold the pig's brain, she has nothing to do to poison her, she gritted her teeth and said, "I didn't poison the Bingyan Pill, if I poisoned, I won't die well!" ”

Swear?

Qingyun smiled. At this time, it is useless to swear, if the oath can be used as evidence to prove a person's innocence, then every prison in the Dajin Dynasty is empty.

The criminal department was speechless. Asked her where the Bingyan Pill came from, she didn't say whether she was alive or dead, and swore that it would be useless, he looked at Hou Ye and said, "I don't know if Mrs. Zun has something unspeakable, but Mrs. Zun is like this." We can't investigate the case, if we can't find out the origin of Bingyan Pill and the motive for committing the crime, then the case of Concubine Shen's poisoning will have nothing to do with Mrs. Zun. ”

Hou Ye's eyes condensed, looking at the eldest lady's eyes, with some annoyance, "Let me ask you one last time, where did the Bingyan Pill come from?!" ”

The eldest lady bit her lip tightly, and there was cold sweat on her forehead.

Qingyun stood at the screen, stretched out her hand to touch the screen embroidered by Mu Qingling, with a leisurely face, if there was a stool, it would be better to add a plate of melon seeds.

Suddenly, her cloud sleeve was tugged.

Qingyun glanced at Mu Qingrou standing aside, her orchid-embroidered cloud sleeves were being pulled tightly by her, with some wrinkles.

She was covered with a sky-blue veil, and she couldn't see her face clearly, but her eyes were red, her eyes were full of tears, and her eyes were full of crystal tears, like two clear springs, trickling and flowing, moisturizing things silently.

Her voice was also softer than ever, and she said with pleading and expectation, "Third sister, come out for a while, I have something to tell you." ”

Have something to say to her?

Qingyun was funny, she didn't have to go out, she also knew what Mu Qingrou wanted to say to her, probably to ask her to take the initiative to admit to the Criminal Department Shangshu and the Right Prime Minister that the Bingyan Pill was given to the eldest lady by her.

In this way, she can not only transfer the matter of Bingyan Pill to Concubine Ning and continue the case, but also help the eldest lady cover up her stealing the pillars, her wishful thinking is really good.

It's just that she thought that if she pretended to be pitiful like this, she would stupidly rush up to make a shield for the eldest lady?

She's not that great, isn't she?

Not to mention, their mother and daughter bullied her a lot before, even if the relationship is not bad, she won't help with perjury, okay?

Qingyun pulled the cloud sleeve back, and with more force, it hit the screen, and there was a clang.

In the main hall, many people turned their heads.

Qingyun's cheeks are slightly red, like a winding snow-capped mountain, illuminated by the afterglow of the sunset, and the beauty is not like the scenery of the world.

She stepped forward and thanked the officers and soldiers of the Criminal Department who helped hold the screen.

The officers and soldiers of the Criminal Department hurriedly said, "I can't thank you for your efforts." ”

After speaking, he said in his heart: Who is this girl, she looks so good-looking, and her voice is so good-looking, she hears that his bones are crispy, and he is a little fluttery.

Hou Ye looked at Qingyun and asked, "Why are you standing at the screen?" ”

Qingyun laughed and said, "When my daughter heard that the Criminal Department came to the Hou Mansion to investigate the case, she was a little curious, and she was afraid of disturbing the investigation of the Criminal Department, so she stood at the screen and listened, but she didn't expect to hit the screen and disturb ......." ”

Behind her, Mu Qingrou gritted her teeth a little.

She did it on purpose!

Deliberately hit the screen, get everyone's attention, and then enter the house, so that you don't bother with her anymore!

Mu Qingrou regretted it in her heart, if she knew that Bingyan Pill had been poisoned, she would not do anything to steal the beams and change the pillars, but she helped her block the trouble, but her mother was unlucky to be questioned by others.

Thinking of Qingyun, Mu Qingrou's face was even heavier.

In the past, she didn't know that Qingyun knew how to heal, so she took some ordinary health pills to replace the Bingyan Pill, but she ate it and said that it had no effect, and she accidentally destroyed the Bingyan Pill, she was still complacent, and felt that she had no worries.

She didn't know that pill was Bingyan Pill at all!

Maybe the poison in the Bingyan Pill was secretly guarded by the Zhennan Hou Mansion under her secret instructions!

The more she thought about it, the more Mu Qingrou believed that this was the truth.

Over there, after the Hou Ye asked, the eldest lady still didn't speak, and the old lady was also angry, and asked again, "Where did the Bingyan Pill come from?!" ”

Shangshu and Youxiang of the Criminal Department looked at each other, could it be that the poison in the Bingyan Pill was really ordered by Mrs. Andinghou, but why did she poison the eldest lady of Zhongyi Bofu?

Moreover, even if you want to poison the eldest lady of Zhongyi Bofu, you can't use such a precious pill as Bingyan Pill, ordinary pastries, rouge gouache are enough, the cost of such a killing is too great, and it is too stupid to find out about her as soon as you check it.

After the old lady asked, the right minister stood up, and the Shangshu of the Criminal Department also stood up, looked at Hou Ye and said, "The case of Concubine Shen's poisoning is a serious matter, Mrs. Zun didn't say where the Bingyan Pill came from, I can only take her back to the Criminal Department to ask about the case, in addition, I want to tell Hou Ye first that I can't help it, the Criminal Department will ask the case, and the punishment will be used when necessary, if it hurts Mrs. Zun'......." ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department greeted him in advance, but he had the idea of warning the eldest lady that she was in the Hou Mansion, she could keep silent and not say anything, once she was brought back to the Criminal Department, and if she still didn't say anything, then he could only use the punishment to force interrogation or even extort a confession.

It's just that there is the support of the Jiang family and the Zhennan Hou Mansion behind the Anding Hou Mansion, and the daughter of the eldest lady is the future second princess, and may even be the future queen, and the criminal department Shangshu does not dare to offend, but it is his duty to investigate the case, and many people are staring at it, so he greeted him in advance, and the Hou Ye agreed, if there is anything wrong in the future, such as hurting his body with torture, and what sequelae he has, he will not bear it.

Hou Ye also knew that he had caused trouble to the Shangshu of the Criminal Department, he could say this, it was already giving him face, how could he not know the current affairs, "It was I who settled the Hou Mansion and caused trouble to the Criminal Department, and the Criminal Department handled the case in accordance with the national law, I have nothing to say." ”

Shangshu of the Criminal Department was relieved, and then his face turned cold, and he ordered, "Take Mrs. Andinghou back to the Criminal Department to ask about the case!" ”

Several officers and soldiers of the Criminal Department suddenly turned cold and walked over.

The eldest lady was really scared this time, she thought that the Hou Ye would protect her for the sake of the Hou Mansion's face, she hurriedly said, "I didn't poison the Bingyan Pill!" ”

She has said this sentence four or five times, and she has not changed a word, who wants to listen to it?

The officers and soldiers wanted to come over to arrest the eldest lady, but Mu Qingrou rushed over, blocked in front of the eldest lady, and said indignantly, "Don't arrest my mother, my mother didn't poison the Bingyan Pill, the Bingyan Pill is hers!" ”

She raised her hand and pointed to Qingyun.

Qingyun looked innocent, her eyes were clear and bright, and she was a little ignorant, "How did Bingyan Pill become mine?" I only had two boxes of Bingyan Pills, which were sent by Concubine Ning to Ruoyao, I ate one pill, and the others were accidentally soiled by the tea, I let the maid bury them, everyone knows about this. ”

Mu Qing gritted her teeth softly, she was about to speak, but was dragged by the eldest lady.

The eldest lady's eyes were cold, and the eyes that swept towards Qingyun were like ice blades, extremely sharp.

Qingrou and filial, she can't sit back and watch her be taken to the criminal department, or even tortured, if she tells the truth and reaches the emperor's ears, she will definitely use her virtue to lose money, and withdraw the marriage decree between her and the second prince, and the second half of Qing's life will be ruined!

The lesser of the two powers, the eldest lady gritted her teeth and said, "That Bingyan Pill is indeed Qingyun's, and it was sent by Concubine Ning to the county lord of Ruoyao." ”

PS: Soon the second will be ...... (To be continued.) )
